Improving Patient Care

Making sure your patient gets the best care? Juggling with the most appropriate allocation of bed-space? Optimizing patient length of stay? Are these some of your daily challenges as a healthcare professional? bioMérieux provides a wide range of diagnostic tests that support optimal patient care.

Providing the best possible care for each individual patient is every healthcare provider’s aim. But challenges such as understaffing, overcrowding and lack of time often make this goal difficult to achieve. Rapid, non-invasive diagnostic tests can help you get closer to your goal to provide optimum care.

Providing the right care for the right patient

Making the right diagnosis means providing the right care for the right patient at the right time.

Rapid diagnostic tests can support clinical diagnosis or exclusion for optimized patient management.

Faster results lead toearlier adjustment of antibiotic therapy, improved patient outcomes, a significant reduction in the length of hospitalization and associated financial benefits.1

Antibiotic therapy guidance

Get within-the-hour guidance on when to initiate and/or adjustantibiotic therapy, by measuring Procalcitonin (PCT) levels, which correlate withpresence and severity of bacterial infection. PCT also provides guidance on when to continue/stop antibiotic treatment earlier.2

In just 5-10 minutes, Strep A or Influenzarapid tests can help confirm suspected bacterial infection and support relevant prescription of antibiotics.
